Media regulator Ofcom yesterday began 15 investigations into the ‘due impartiality’ of state-backed Russian broadcaster RT.
The move, which increases the likelihood of RT losing its UK licence, relates to 15 editions of its hourly news show aired on Sunday.
The EU has banned the channel, formerly known as Russia Today, but Foreign Secretary Liz Truss warned a similar move in the UK was likely to lead to the BBC being banned in Russia.
She added: ‘We want the Russian population to hear the truth about what Putin is doing.’
